Ukrainian Ministry of Economy and Environment to Hold Online Briefing
Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy and Environment will convene a virtual meeting with the country’s business community on September 4. The session will focus on shaping a national greenhouse gas emissions allowance trading system. Attendees are expected to discuss the proposed framework for the future system and review legislative initiatives already filed in the Verkhovna Rada. Such market-based tools are widely used around the world as a way to reduce carbon emissions.
Why Participation Matters for Companies
Owners and trade association representatives are invited to join the online event, which starts at 11:30. Pre-registration is required, with the sign-up link placed in the event’s comments. Business is encouraged to take part in shaping the national emissions trading system. This engagement offers firms an opportunity to influence environmental policy and weigh in on important bills. Launching a national cap-and-trade system is part of Ukraine’s environmental and sustainable development obligations, and it may have significant consequences for trade and economic practices in the country.
